Wonder if the Irish would want one -- Sunsetunderground 02/10/2022 1:02PM No -- TerryD 02/10/2022 1:09PM Not to be argumentative -- Sunsetunderground 02/10/2022 2:59PM Not to be argumentative -- TerryD 02/10/2022 3:42PM Screenshot for future verification -- obguthr 02/10/2022 7:31PM Thats my thinking as well -- Mercury 02/10/2022 09:28AM AD Shane Lyons shot down any WVU to ACC speculation in December -- Millpoint 02/11/2022 08:51AM I think any Big 12 team would gladly jump to the ACC now. -- Truthahn 02/13/2022 9:45PM Come on// this is NOT for any average person discussion and debate -- Mercury 02/11/2022 10:03AM One thing I've constantly heard from our media in Morgantown -- Millpoint 02/11/2022 10:00PM VT's AD shot down any ACC talk in 2003 as well. -- Victor Tango 02/11/2022 09:27AM Agree 100% -- Millpoint 02/11/2022 10:20AM Exactly ** -- Mercury 02/11/2022 10:07AM I’ve heard Memphis and Boise St are on deck ** -- Millpoint 02/10/2022 9:04PM Hopefully the ACC won't screw this up. Go 3 permanent rivals, rotate others -- Maroon Baboon 02/09/2022 7:19PM The pods are simply a scheduling tool for better rotation -- Mercury 02/11/2022 08:32AM You realize you will have permanent inequitable schedules FOREVER -- Vippie1 02/10/2022 11:08AM No matter how you do it, there will be inequitable schedules ** -- wwhokie1 02/10/2022 1:40PM Rivalries matter. And they matter more than equitable schedules. -- Maroon Baboon 02/10/2022 1:39PM Exactly. This issue is just another reason why increasing the size -- VTHokie2000 02/10/2022 1:49PM The rivalries matter to the schools and their fans though -- VTHokie2000 02/10/2022 12:02PM Yes. ANNUAL rivalries are where it's at. -- Maroon Baboon 02/10/2022 1:47PM If you feel ACC need 3 built in games every season -- Vippie1 02/10/2022 3:07PM No. How is adding two teams going to allow us to play more often? -- Maroon Baboon 02/10/2022 3:18PM Even if the ACC added 1 team (i.e. WVU) and opted to go with 3 quads/pods -- VTHokie2000 02/10/2022 3:48PM Certainly adding teams would complicate matters. -- Maroon Baboon 02/10/2022 4:32PM Yes, adding teams would complicate matters -- VTHokie2000 02/10/2022 4:47PM 3 Permanent rivals seems to only work with an even amount of teams. -- Maroon Baboon 02/10/2022 5:40PM FWIW I did something similar when the MAC had 13 football members -- VTHokie2000 02/10/2022 6:06PM 14 is actually a good number -- obguthr 02/10/2022 8:24PM Assuming WVU became the 15th team, then limiting the protected games -- VTHokie2000 02/11/2022 02:31AM I'd be fine with just giving each individual school what it needs -- Maroon Baboon 02/11/2022 3:15PM A problem with customizing the number of protected games for each school -- VTHokie2000 02/12/2022 06:13AM As long as no team has more than 3 and we play 5 or more additional ACC -- Maroon Baboon 02/12/2022 10:43AM I'm a little surprised that you think UNC is the only team that "needs" 3 -- VTHokie2000 02/13/2022 12:47AM I'd like to play WVU every year. But we aren't doing it now, so that is -- Maroon Baboon 02/13/2022 01:30AM I'm not sure NC State "could live" without playing Wake since they -- VTHokie2000 02/14/2022 1:21PM To be honest -- Millpoint 02/11/2022 10:22AM I wouldn't assume that WVU would get stuck with L'ville -- VTHokie2000 02/12/2022 06:22AM NC State is probably another that needs 3 (UNC, Wake, Clemson) -- VTHokie2000 02/10/2022 1:58PM Gawd, HOKIES getting into the weeds AGAIN -- Mercury 02/10/2022 09:31AM UVa needs to keep playing UNC. -- Maroon Baboon 02/10/2022 1:19PM As long as VT gets to maintain that heated rivalry with BC** -- Millpoint 02/09/2022 7:30PM That's who we are going to get stuck with in that plan. ** -- EDGEMAN 02/09/2022 9:59PM The only way the ACC will ever let VT get a divorce from BC -- VTHokie2000 02/09/2022 10:32PM That's why we don't need "permanent rival" games! -- EDGEMAN 02/09/2022 10:46PM This x 1000 ** -- hokie4ever 02/10/2022 1:25PM I suspect you (and VT) would be in the minority on that issue -- VTHokie2000 02/10/2022 01:55AM BC should play Syracuse, Miami, and Pitt each year. Not VT. -- Maroon Baboon 02/10/2022 12:04AM Oh don't worry the ACC will make sure that VT ends up with BC, Syracuse, -- VTHokie2000 02/09/2022 7:32PM This makes so much sense for the ACC -- Millpoint 02/09/2022 1:31PM That's not necessarily an "always" -- Pylons 02/10/2022 10:45AM Then choose two best teams by CFP rankings -- Millpoint 02/10/2022 8:42PM I doubt any conference is going to want to crown a champion -- Pylons 02/12/2022 3:04PM It will be interesting to see how many conferences do opt to go -- VTHokie2000 02/09/2022 6:45PM I can't really see a way that it hurts ** -- Pylons 02/10/2022 11:15AM It may not be a matter of whether it helps or hurts the conference -- VTHokie2000 02/10/2022 11:46AM You brought up the perception of helping or hurting ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ** -- Pylons 02/10/2022 12:05PM And if you re-read my post then you will I'm not talking about the concept -- VTHokie2000 02/10/2022 12:19PM I think the New Big 12 will be in on it too -- Millpoint 02/09/2022 7:23PM Given that the Big XII is spread out, it makes sense for that -- VTHokie2000 02/09/2022 7:30PM I’d have to think the New Big 12 will do this as well -- Millpoint 02/09/2022 8:21PM I noticed you left out BYU. How do they fit into your equation? ** -- VTHokie2000 02/09/2022 8:23PM I guess they become the new WVU -- Millpoint 02/09/2022 9:17PM From a scheduling standpoint, I would think everyone would need to follow -- VTHokie2000 02/09/2022 10:23PM As crazy as this sounds -- Millpoint 02/09/2022 8:15PM I do see why you say that. At the same time, doesn't the Big Ten -- VTHokie2000 02/09/2022 8:21PM Why just two best teams? Let's have a playoff with the four best teams. -- IB4TECH 02/09/2022 2:54PM Can't come soon enough! ** -- EDGEMAN 02/09/2022 1:23PM
